Well the easiest way to put it is that Phnom Chisor is what Oudong would look like if they had built Tonle Bati on top of it.username wrote: ↑Mon Jan 22, 2018 8:25 pm I've only been to Phnom Chisor of the places mentioned here, and I've been there many times. How would you rank the other places mentioned compared to it? I've always liked Phnom Chisor as a short trip out of Phnom Penh, but not really anything else than that. If the other places are less liked than Phnom Chisor, I don't feel any need to visit them
Silence, exile, and cunning.

Sights are subjective. people have different tastes and interests. For some people the availability of cold beer is the most important requirement for a day out and all these places may be lacking in that respect

Went to Phnom Da a few years back. I was really impressed with the museum. It's small but quite well maintained. Much better than some of the larger museums I've been to in Vietnam and Laos.willyhilly wrote: ↑Mon Jan 22, 2018 5:03 pm It's an easy drive down Highway 21 on the west side of the Bassac to Phnom Sa Ang. A lovely little hill top temple in magnificent farmland. Guaranteed no tourists. Or a taxi to Takeo and a speedboat ride to Phnom Da, depending on water levels. In the wet season it is the best experience in Cambodia blasting along the ancient canals that are nearly 2000 years old and run like super highways into Vietnam. You ride in a fiberglass dinghy with a big outboard, it's a real blast. You can also go to the museum with ancient artifacts, people are still digging them up and selling them for a song.
Was it the Funan Empire?
Outdong is average, Bati is ordinary. Both have beggars in profusion. There is a guy at the Indochine in 136 with a RAV4 who knows the ropes for the boats.
Even when a person is not there, the water flows.
